Halogen to LED conversion

[dragoneggs]

LEDs do actually put out decent heat, just look at the back of any decent sized LED bulb or fixture. There is a large finned aluminum heatsink there for a reason. Nowhere near what a halogen puts off, but still a bit. Snow & ice buildup on LEDs isn't actually as much of a problem as they are rumored to be.

I put my LEDs up on the ROPS bar, 2 forward & 2 back. much better coverage instead of the headlights bouncing off the back of the bucket blinding me & not lighting up where I'm going.

Yep, after adding LEDs to the ROPS I have already forgotten I have halogens in front that are blocked by the FEL. Never turn them on.

$100 worth of Tuff-LEDs off Amazon (cheaper now it looks). I used U bolts to put some random piece of square tube ontop of the ROPS with PVC pipe cookies as spacers. A little extra effort, but I figure it's worth it on the off chance of causing problems when I really need the ROPS.

LED lights do produce some heat, but it is a small fraction of what incandesents produce. But incandesants can survive high temperatures, and LED are harmed by high temperatures. So LED lights must have large heatsinks to keep the LED chip cool, even in summer heat.
And the heat from an incandesant is thrown out the front with the light. But with LED lights, the heat goes out the back via the heatsink.
In snowy conditions an LED light can have snow and ice build up on the lense blocking and difuseing the light, the heatsink will remain clear. With an incandesant, the heat going out the lense will keep the lense clear in snowy conditions.

LED's in the front yard. Lots of light without lots of current.
